Bill May's next post from Ain't Misbehavin'--in Paris!

Paris was super QOOL performing at the historic Folies Bergere! The audiences were fantastic! At the end of the performance of our next to last night in Paris, we had a photography shoot in the lobby of the Folies Bergere. Many audience members had not left the theatre and were thrilled to have a close-up experience with the five members of the cast---Rebecca Covington, Yvette Clark, Patrice Covington-Bland, Wayne Pretlow and Milton Craig Nealy---including pictures with the cast, as well as taking pictures of the cast.

Peter Yarrow: A Legend In Song!

The truth is folk music has never really been mainstream popular music. It’s as rare today for a folk musician to grace the Top 40 as it has ever been. So, when you realize that Peter Yarrow (as part of the folk trio Peter, Paul & Mary) placed 12 songs on the chart in the 1960s, you understand that he is a legendary musician who cuts across boundaries and reaches out to all kinds of music listeners.

Admit it...

You thought I was passed out on a blanket drinking in the Jersey sun and enjoying this glorious day. Well, that's what I would have LIKED to do but Gogol Bordello grabbed me into the melodic tractor beam and I was helpless. No naps for this bloggy lady.

Also, it's me, JerzeyGrrl. ::waves:: HI!

Gooood Morning APPEL FARM!

Did you get my Robin Williams impression there? I bet you did. You're smart like that. Well hello again interwebz, this is JerzeyGrrl live-blogging to you all the artsy goodness that is the Appel Farm Arts & Music Festival. Let's get right to it, shall we?

This morning started quite early as my iPhone buzzed on the night stand reminding me that I had indeed signed up for the 20+ mile bike ride starting at the Farm. After a hit on the snooze bar and pouring myself into my biking gear I hit the road for the Farm and my day.
